Riddle me this? What part of Walt Disney World is used by every guest, every day, and is completely essential? We’re talking bathrooms, of course.

Inside

While many people may not think of bathrooms above rides and restaurants when planning a Disney World vacation, there are questions every guest NEEDS to know the answer to before they set foot in one of Disney World’s theme parks. Some are pressing online, some we’ve heard from readers, and some from our very own team members. In all cases, we have the answers!

“Do Men’s Restrooms Include a Baby Changing Table?”

Most of the bathrooms in Disney World’s four theme parks, as well as the water parks and Disney Springs, have them. In addition, the gender-neutral Companion Restrooms and Baby Care Centers at the theme parks are equipped with baby changing tables.

“Where are Companion Restrooms Located in Each Park?”

Speaking og those Gender Neutral Companion Restrooms, those curious where they’re located in each park can consult the following list:

  • Discovery Island opposite Flame Tree Barbecue

  • Harambe Theater in Africa.
  • Restrooms near Expedition Everest.
  • Near Maharajah Jungle Trek, on the left before the entrance.

“Why do the Animal Kingdom Bathrooms Have Exterior Doors?”

Have you noticed that the bathrooms at Animal Kingdom have heavy exterior doors while those at the other parks have open entranceways? These are in place in the unlikely, but possible, event of an animal escape-related emergency.

“What are the Least Busy Major Bathrooms?”

From our collective experiences, the quietest major bathrooms can be found at EPCOT’s American Adventure. These relatively new restrooms are not only out of the way, but they’re also so large that even when there are guests in them, they still feel comparatively empty.

Moving over to Walt Disney World’s other theme parks, the (comparatively) quietest bathrooms at the Magic Kingdom are those tucked behind Gaston’s…

… while Hollywood Studios’ are located near the Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant. While this eatery is one of the park’s most popular, many guests sidestep the restrooms, leaving them as one of the comparatively emptiest options in the center of the park…

Animal Kingdom’s are those near Theater in the Wild AS LONG AS YOU TIME IT RIDE. Specifically, you’ll want to avoid times directly around the start or end of a performance of Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond!

“Where are the Best Themed Bathrooms?”

While theming may not be the first thing on the mind of a guest rushing to a Disney World bathroom, there are some heavily in-universe options across the resort. The biggest and best-known are probably the Fantasyland restrooms lovingly known as the “Tangled Toilets,” which essentially recreate a whole area from the film, lanterns and all.

Over at Hollywood Studios, the Galaxy’s Edge bathrooms immerse guests in the Star Wars galaxy, complete with furnishings and even the in-universe audio playing over the speakers.

Finally, there are Frozen-themed restrooms tucked away in the Norway Pavilion in EPCOT’s World Showcase.

“What’s the Best Bathroom on Main Street?”

For millions of guests, Main Street U.S.A. is their gateway into and out of the Magic Kingdom each year, meaning it’s where many guests use the bathroom for the first or last time in the park. The area has several restroom options, but our choice for the best is those located at Casey’s Corner. These newly renovated bathrooms match the baseball vibes of the restaurant with blue and white tiles.

“Do Disney’s Toilets Flush Automatically?”

This question comes up often, especially from families traveling with those with sensitivities to noises. Most Disney World bathrooms do flush automatically, though some in companion restrooms, as well as those at the Baby Changing Centers, flush manually.

“Are Adult Changing Tables Available?”

Adult changing tables are not available in most Disney restrooms, but they are available at the First Aid locations in all of the theme parks and water parks, and in the Companion Restroom at CommuniCore Hall & Plaza in EPCOT.
